Emanuele,
Do you think you could re-write this tutorial for AS3?
Thanks :)

Thank You Emanuele for the great tutorial.
I was able to add a preloader, start page, credits page and added scoring to the game itself, when at 0 it goes to a game over page where you can click a Play the game again button or click a Submit your max_score button, which will submit the score to my arcade. I also changed the blue dots to blue spiders who’s legs move, made a hero and made the red dot into a red spider, looks creepy with all those little blue spiders moving around, lol. May I use the finished game for my visitors to play for free on my website? I put Credits to you and links to your Tutorial and Home page on the Credits page in the game. New at Flash just started two weeks ago and learn a lot from these tutorials that folks like you do for all of us beginners. Thank You again, I learned a lot and had a lot of fun doing it.

Hi Emanuelle, Thanks for the idea for a game. I would like to add a timer for maybe 30 seconds and add lives to make the game even more addictive. What would I need to do? Your website is a fantasic aid to learning flash gaming techniques.

It’s having trouble running in flash mx. Unexpected file format, and when i type it in manually, the hignscore list shows this.
**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 4: There is no property with the name ‘compare_scores’.
get_score.compare_scores = function(points) {
Is this only ment to work on newer flash programs?
